I am trying to use Win32::OLE for accessing the Notes database. Here is a sample script:

use Win32::OLE;

use strict;
use warnings;

use vars qw($S @EXPORT @EXPORT_OK $VERSION);
BEGIN {
    $VERSION=0.1;
    $S = Win32::OLE->new('Notes.NotesSession') or 
die "Unable to instatiate Notes Session";
}
my $server = "aiqlotus85aix61/avamar";
my $dbdir = $S->GetDbDirectory($server);
my @dbs;
for (my $db = $dbdir->GetFirstDatabase(1247);
    $db;
    $db=$dbdir->GetNextDatabase) {
    push @dbs,{server => $server,
    title => $db->Title,
    filepath => $db->Filepath};
}

my $t;

for $t (@dbs)
{
    print "$t->{title} : $t->{filepath}\n";
}
[download]

But it is hanging, since the server aiqlotus85aix61 is a remote machine. I am able to ping the machine.

Any idea why it is hanging.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
